Trump went on to say that this is “not a good situation for anyone.” “I am surrounded by more men, guns, and weapons than I have ever seen before,” he continued before expressing his gratitude to Congress and the Secret Service for protecting him. For a change, he did not lambast his rival party.
“Thank you to Congress for unanimously approving far more money to Secret Service - Zero “NO” Votes, strictly bipartisan,” Trump said. “Nice to see Republicans and Democrats get together on something. An attack on a former President is a Death Wish for the attacker!” he added.
